Self found shaman

[Bobjenson]

Hi all,

Still trying to decide on race but leaning toward barb.

Any advise wouls be awesome.


Thanks

Barb is good for self funding because qhills and bandits.

If you're making the character because you like the look of a particular race, roll whatever you want

If you want to roll the best Shaman race you roll Ogre

It's not even close

Best overall. Troll.

Best soloer at 60. Ogre.

Best raider. Iksar

Best faction. Barb.

I went troll on mine, if I could do it over again I’d probably go iksar.

There are items in the game that give regen

There are no items in the game that give FSI

Ogre is the only choice

Not true at all. FSI is the most overrated crap unless you're doing extremely tough solo challenges. If OP has no aspirations to be a solo god and would rather have an easier time leveling, its troll or iksar...just pick based on looks (iksar kinda wins out with better starting zone).

Iksar also gets the amazing hate gear for practically free dkp. Falls right into the self found theme.

Any race are good

But if you want to choose the SHM EZ mode: go for Ogre

Really helpful.

I think I'm going barb as this is more for fun and exploring.

Any recommendation on progression gear? I plan to make my own banded and help other newbs but wasnt surr aftee that.

[Encroaching Death]

I went Ogre because I like the idea of a huge fat spell caster.

FSI is just a bonus.
